Cardigan is a bit scratchy and more bulky than I expected. I sized down to an XS which made it a bit better. Note – my skin is not super sensitive so some people might find the fabric to be itchy but it wasn’t a concern for me.

85 Piper Pump
I’ve come to a recent realization that after two kids, my days of 4″ stilettos are over. However, I still love beautiful shoes and wanted something professional and versatile that I could wear for multiple hours at a time. I figured I would give these block heels a try. Plus, I saw Kate Middleton wearContinue reading “85 Piper Pump”
Tierra Tee
$34 (originally $94) but got on sale. Light, thin, good color, a little romantic. I’m 5’3 105lbs, and got the XS. Definitely keeping this one – it’ll be a great summer basic. ,,,
Janie Dress

Mini Ella Bio Tote
Treated myself to this mini tote with a gift card I got over the holidays! Absolutely in love with the color and style. It’s so cute and will look so nice in the summer with a variety of outfits and fits my phone, keys, cards, and lipstick just fine. The material is very sturdy andContinue reading “Mini Ella Bio Tote”
Leontine Jumper
The style is quite boxy but I like it. I usually wear the top tucked in. It’s not super soft but it is very comfortable. I have larger bust and S is perfect (my usual size is M, sometimes L in other brands).Sezane,S,$125, French Brands,Jumper,Size S,Tops All Reviews,Sezane,Top
Miller Dickey Jacket
This is one of VB’s bestsellers and is now a staple in my closet. The fabric has a little stretch. I love the dickey feature – you can buy the separate hoodie dickey (like this one) and zip up into the blazer for added warmth (excellent feature for women who are always freezing in theContinue reading “Miller Dickey Jacket”
Dylan Dress
MM Lafleur can be a bit hit or miss but luckily this one worked out for me. Easy dress for the office with flats and a blazer. MM Lafleur,XS,$75,5’3-5’4 5’3-5’4,Dress,Emerging Designers,Size XS All Reviews,Dresses
Espadrilles
Just bought these Chanel espadrilles at Nieman Marcus and loving everything about them! They look more yellow in the picture, but they’re much more tan in real life. Note – They run big! They only come in full sizes and I got a 7 and I’m usually a 7.5. They have some support but notContinue reading “Espadrilles”
Jordaan Loafer
Just bought a pair of Gucci Jordaan loafers and I’m so obsessed with them, they instantly elevate my outfits and they’re incredibly comfy! I thought I would have buyer’s remorse but I’m honestly really chuffed. I wanted them for a few years and finally bit the bullet for my birthday and to celebrate one yearContinue reading “Jordaan Loafer”
Beri Bag
It’s a very light bag! I thought it’d be heavier – almost 12oz on my kitchen scale. Not a stitch out of place, thick lovely leather, hangs off the shoulder like a dream. Such a fun summer piece and the design will hold up with time. It’s good leather that can take some stress. IContinue reading “Beri Bag”
Back to Front Shirt Dress
The dresses are super washable and non iron (I also have the Something Borrowed shirt dress). They don’t wrinkle and I buy darker colors (won’t show sweat etc) and I’ve been happy. Their clothes are unlined so you may need a slip for some of the dresses. I machine wash and the colors are allContinue reading “Back to Front Shirt Dress”
Chlo Shirt
Absolutely love it. I tried the ecru one and it was totally see through. This one isn’t see through at all. Sezane,,$130, Button-Down Shirt,French Brands,Tops All Reviews,Sezane,Top
Like a Boss Sweatshirt
Some general Aday notes: I would say for Aday, they used to have this seaweed fabric that looked really nice the first couple times it was worn but not much after that. But they don’t use that fabric anymore. The rest are amazing! I own an embarrassingly large number of Aday items. In particular I’veContinue reading “Like a Boss Sweatshirt”
Belladonna Dress
This is the linen and cotton blend. The linen is yellower than expected. Wanted to post a pic of my first Sézane order since I always find it nice to see how clothes look on someone other than the model. Pros: the colors are beautiful, I am really tall and it hits right at myContinue reading “Belladonna Dress”
Katana Tee
This material is thinner than some of the other tops I got as part of my NATION Ltd haul. Still think it’s cute and will keep.

Gigi Tank
Part of a big NATION Ltd haul. This fabric is super stretchy, lightweight, comfortable. I might try playing around with the bows. It’s a versatile piece that will go with a lot of my skirts, which is partly why I bought it. One thing I noticed is the edge (see bottom pic) – a littleContinue reading “Gigi Tank”
Palmina Mandarin Collar Ruffle Top
m 5’3, 105lbs. I got the XS which is perfect. The cotton is a nice thick fabric and I love the gold buttons. The detailing on this shirt is really lovely and the color is nice too.
